367: The Anakin Skywalker of the Series
Cast No Shadow. The fallout of the conspiracy that Kirk and his crew uncover in The Undiscovered Country is not something that we get to see on screen, thankfully the books exist. In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew Rushing and Casey Pettitt talk about Cast No Shadow. We discuss unpacking Valeris, Spock's small role, unpacking the conspiracy, fueling hate, Elias Vaughn's first mission, one last question, our ratings and final thoughts. In the news section we review Star Trek #11, Defiant #7 and a new Strange New Worlds comic, The Scorpius Run.
